The benefits of a Mediterranean diet are well established3 and olives are at its heart. Comvita Olive Leaf Extract is a simple, convenient way to help deliver the goodness of olives. It contains at least 20 times more beneficial active polyphenols than an equivalent quantity of Extra Virgin Olive Oil. These polyphenol compounds – oleuropein and hydroxytrosol are in part responsible for the beneficial effects of the Mediterranean diet, which help support the maintenance of normal blood pressure2. All our Olive Leaf Extract is produced on our farm in Queensland, Australia. Our Fresh-Picked trademark means that we harvest and process the leaves whilst they are still fresh to immediately seal in the concentrated natural goodness – unlike some products, no synthetic Oleuropein is added, no added sugar, alcohol, yeast, gluten, artificial colour or preservatives.
